Steve Kerr will undergo back surgery on Tuesday in order to address a herniated disk.

He has reportedly been dealing with this issue for a couple of months, but hopefully the Warriors head coach will be back on his feet in no time. Kerr deserves a lot of credit for leading the Warriors to the 2014-15 NBA Championship, and it will be interesting to see if they can repeat their success next year with a similar roster in town.

When Warriors' head coach Steve Kerr was asked if he intended to keep the same starting lineup from Game 4 for Sunday's Game 5 in Oakland he responded: "We could."

The Warriors replaced Andrew Bogut in the starting lineup with Andre Iguodala for Game 4, and that lineup switch resulted in a 21-point blowout win for the Dubs, so it would be shocking if Kerr didn't roll with that same starting unit for Game 5. We likely won't get the lineup notes until just before the tip, but it's a safe bet to assume Iguodala will again run with the starters tonight. Jun 14 - 6:33 PM

Steve Kerr said that his assistant, Nick U'Ren, was the one that made the suggestion to insert Andre Iguodala in the starting lineup in favor of Andrew Bogut.

"He's behind the bench, he's 28 years old, he's a kid," Kerr said of U'Ren. "We have a staff that is very cooperative. Whoever has the idea, it doesn't matter. And he brought me the idea." U'Ren said he got the idea from watching last year's Finals between the Spurs and the Heat, and he saw the impact that Boris Diaw had when he replaced Tiago Splitter in the starting lineup. The lineup switch resulted in a blowout win for the Warriors, and Kerr’s willingness to hear suggestions from anyone on the Warriors staff is a stark contrast from his previous predecessor.

Steve Kerr disagreed with the NBA's statement that LeBron James' steal against Stephen Curry at the end of Game 3 wasn't a foul.

While channeling his inner snark, Kerr gave his reaction to the NBA's statement saying the officials didn't make a mistake on the call. "It was the right call. Slide tackling is perfectly legal. So is traveling. We're going to teach it next season." While Kerr may not agree with the call, he'll need to move on as the Warriors face what is essentially a must-win Game 4 on Thursday night.

Kevon Looney said he's working with coach Ron Adams to improve his footwork on his shot.

Looney was taking 3-pointers towards the end of summer league and said he's just working on taking what the defense gives him. The UCLA rookie slipped a bit in the draft due to a hip injury, but he looks like a very good value at No. 30. In six Vegas games, Looney averaged 9.3 points, 7.3 boards, 1.0 blocks and 0.5 treys. He's behind James Michael McAdoo and won't get minutes to start the season.
